That is the whole point of these discussions. They are heated and overfocus
on some detail that is considered all inhibiting, and they compare detail
problems of the current implementation with a future implementation that is
perfect on paper. (and of course it never is).
If you want documentation, write documentation, don't discuss change
requests.

If drastic changes (like postponing header initialization till larger parts
of the LCL are in the air) must be made, I rather fix all issues.
Anyway, the crucial question still hasn't been answered, does sqldb/lazarus
have designtime database connections like Delphi/zeos has?
